Hello - Is it/would it be possible to use Philip Hazel's pcre regular expression (regex) library in a Rebol program? Regards _John Sampson_

Hi, well, if you have the /Pro version of Rebol that can handle DLLs and the extension is available as DLL, then yes. But, I don't think it's necessary. Rebol's PARSE is very powerful and much simpler to use if you need to handle data processing. Hope this helps a bit. -- Robert M. M=FCnch http://www.robertmuench.de

Hi John, JS> Is it/would it be possible to use Philip Hazel's pcre regular expression JS> (regex) library in a Rebol program? I started on it at one point. But it was just for fun, and the interface turned out to be a pain to deal with, so I didn't continue. I can send you what I have if you want. -- Gregg

Hello - Thanks for the warning and the offer. If it is difficult I should probably be looking elsewhere. Regards _John Sampson_ Gregg Irwin wrote:
